Getting Ready for Halloween: Pumpkin Doily
A plump pumpkin-shaped doily is perfect for your Halloween decor. It can serve as a standalone accessory, a base for a candy bowl, or even a cross-stitch pattern. The crochet chart for this pumpkin is also suitable for cross-stitching. For this project, it is best to use thin cotton thread in orange, yellow, or pale green—depending on which color you prefer for your plump little pumpkin. Alternatively, if you are into photography, the doily can be used as a prop for a photo zone, as it embodies autumn and its generous harvest.
## Pumpkin Doily Crochet Chart
The piece is worked in filet crochet: an empty cell means 1 double crochet, 1 chain, 1 double crochet; a filled cell means 3 double crochets.
PLEASE NOTE! Although the pumpkin has a nearly round shape, it is not worked from the center, but from the bottom up with increases according to the chart. The size of the doily depends on the thickness of the thread and the crochet hook used.
